Chapter 1

Disclaimer: I own nothing of One Piece or of Harry Potter. I really wished that I did, but sadly I do not. Please enjoy this story chapter.

"Talking"

'Thinking'

(Scene Break)

Helen Potter was almost thirteen years old and already another major life changing event happened in her some what of a short life. Her Aunt Petunia, Uncle Vernon, and Dudley went out earlier in the week to pick up Aunt Marge, Uncle Vernon's only sister and living relative, from the local train station, but sadly they did not make it home. A drunk driver had hit them head on. Only Dudley had survived the car crash. But his arms were both broken, several ribs were either broken or cracked and also, has a sever head injury. Dudley has to stay in the hospital for at least two weeks on doctor's orders, before he can be released into Helen's care.

When she first visited Dudley in the hospital, Helen tried her best to comfort Dudley as best as she could without hurting even more. Once, he had calmed down enough for her to explain some things to him like what's going to happen to them if she did not take action to stop it from happening like guardianship. She had given him two choices, he could go to an orphanage where he might not see his friends again or he can let her adopt him into her family and continue living in the same house as before when she becomes a legal adult in the eyes of the government with the help from 'her people'. Dudley gave his answer immediately, he did not want to move in with some stranger and loose the last connection that he had with his parents. Helen warned him to not expect the same treatment that he got from his parents from her.

Since, the elder Dursleys did not have any real friends that they could turn to for help, planning their funerals fell upon Helen as Dudley would get too upset to do anything like that. So to ease her burden somewhat, Helen was forced to hire Dobby to do the cleaning of the house and to keep it up and not let it fall apart.

Helen shot up in her bed covered with cold sweat as the memories of her past life as Edward Newgate also known as Whitebeard were returning to her. When the memories first came to her when she first laid eyes on the Headmaster's familiar, which was a phoenix. When she did, a picture of a man with a pineapple shaped head that could transformed into a blue flaming phoenix, popped into her mind. Her brain gave her his name, Marco.

Looking at her clock, she saw it was only five in the morning. Sighing, she quietly got up, so she could get ready for the day ahead of her. Today was the day that Helen goes to Gringotts to sign all of the necessary paperwork before everything can settle down and maybe get the goblins to put wards around the property to keep them safe.

Dobby popped in to ask Helen what she would want to eat for breakfast. Helen asked him if he would pack a healthy lunch for her and Dudley. Thankfully, Dobby popped away to do what he was told.

'He'll probably pack enough for an army to eat,' Helen thought to herself. Taking off her nightshirt, something in the mirror caught her attention, her mark or rather tattoo was back in the same spot on her back as it was in her past life.

"Magic is a very strange thing. Either that or Fate is trying to tell me something considering that I can still use my devil fruit power and Haki. I guess that I will have to wait and see," Helen muttered to herself before stepping into the warm shower.

After she got out of the shower and dried off. Helen studied herself in the mirror. She was tall for her age. She stood at five feet and four inches and she is still growing. One could tell that she was built to fight. Her face was the female version of Edward Newgate and it did help that she wore the same hair style as before; a very tight pony tail. Getting dressed in black slacks and an emerald green button up shirt, which she rolled her long sleeves up to her elbows. Helen made her way downstairs to eat her breakfast and get ready to leave for the day, and she made sure to double check that she had her infamous scar covered up with make up.

"Bye Dobby! See you in the afternoon," Helen called out before heading towards the door. 'I really need to find Dobby something to do and fast. There is only so much for the little guy do.'

"Mistress Helen calls Dobby if Mistress need anything," Dobby exclaimed loudly as he bounced back and forth on his feet. He was excited to be serving the great Helen Potter.

Standing at a street corner, waiting for the light to give them the okay for her to cross the street, Helen looked around her as she was in London, on her way to the Leaky Cauldron. She took a taxi to get to where she was now. She spotted someone that she immediately recognized from her past memories across the street.

"Marco," Helen whispered to herself. Helen could not believe her eyes. Marco, her son, was alive, but how? Was he alive all of this time? What about her other precious children? Are they still alive? If she was reborn, does that mean that her beloved son, Ace was reborn as well? Where are the others?

As if he sensed her staring at him, Marco turned his head and met her gaze. It took a moment before Marco's eyes widen as if he recognized her as Whitebeard. Apparently, Marco knew as he mouthed one word in shock. Pops. Before any of them could do anything about it, the crowds were pushing them in opposite directions. Besides, Helen could not mess with her past, until everything in her current life and Dudley was settled down and healed. Also, she has to deal with Gringotts and paperwork. Grr…even in this life, there is no escaping that demon also known as paperwork.

Marco's POV…

It has been thousands of years, since we discovered that we were immortal, cursed by the goddess Eris, the one who created the devil fruits in the first place. She even cursed other people who did not even eat the devil fruit and gained its curse. The only good thing that happened was the that Ace, Oars Jr., and Thatch were reborn, even though Oars is smaller than before, but he is still bigger than the so called giants that is around today. Heck, Jr. is way smarter than them and also, still has his manners that Pops taught him.

"Okay, after this stop, I can finally go home," Marco muttered to himself as he stood waiting for the signal say okay, its safe to walk across. Oh, how he misses Pops, but at least he would not be doing this then.

Suddenly, he felt someone's eyes on him, looking around; he found the source of those eyes. On the opposite street, there was a tall, well built teenage girl. She was staring at him shock. She seemed familiar to him, but he was sure that he never met her before in his life. Suddenly, the girl was replaced by the image of the one person that everyone was looking for.

"Pops!" Marco whispered in shock. Pops' image faded back into the young teenage girl. Marco was about to change directions when the crowd started pushing him away from Pops, the parent and father to a lot of people. It was then it hit him, Pops was born as a female. Marco felt faint as he realized that Pops became mom.

"Forget the errand, I got to get back and tell the others about this," Marco muttered to himself as he changed directions to walk back to his car.
